The ERINN (Economic Research on Identity Norms and Narratives) Network brings together committed researchers who share a common vision concerning the centrality of social forces – particularly identity, norms, and narratives – in shaping economic outcomes. The basic premise is that economic activity takes place in social contexts, which structure and co-determine people’s preferences, beliefs, and constraints. The role of this network of researchers is to bring these processes to the forefront of economic analysis.
ERINN will be hosting this year's annual conference in the University of Warwick's home in Venice.

The India Sustainable Growth Conference at LSE provides a forum for sharing ideas in this space, as well as inviting discussion and debate. The Department of Economics are delighted to support this conference alongside the CAGE Research Centre, LSE and the International Growth Centre.
Creating a sustainable growth strategy for India
Date: Friday 3 May, 18:00 - 19:30
Venue: Online and the Old Theatre, LSEProgramme
Lifting millions out of poverty in India requires rapid economic growth and energy use. At the same time, environmental pollution and climate change create significant barriers to success.
Understanding how to overcome both these challenges at the same time is one of the most important policy problems facing India. It is also a problem that confronts many other developing countries whose policymakers may look to India’s choices for guidance. Any solutions will require increasing support for innovative, applied research and building collaborative international networks of researchers interested in this problem.
The India Sustainable Growth Conference at LSE provides a forum for sharing ideas in this space, as well as inviting discussion and debate. Jointly organised by the International Growth Centre (IGC), LSE STICERD’s Economics of Environment and Energy Programme, University of Warwick and Indian Statistical Institute, the conference aims to bring together PhD students from across the world working on environmental economics, and leading faculty also working at the intersection of environment and economics in India, alongside policymakers in India. It follows on from LSE’s Environment Camp designed to provide PhD students from all fields of economics the opportunity to present new research on environmental issues.
